I've had classical migraines and am very lucky because I only get them 2-3 times a year, with the auras, then vomitting, sleep, and it is gone when I wake up. So, it's quite easy to deal with, as far as migraines go. However, I have been under major stress lately. 10 days ago, I had a 24 hour flu, then woke up with a migraine, popped 3 advils and went back to bed. Then I woke up 3 hours later and my head feels like it is shaking ever since. I know that it is stress, had full blood work done, everything is fine. I just wonder if anyone else has this, is it related to my migraines? What can I do, apart from the obvious... relax!

Welcome to Healing Well. Sorry that you are suffering at the moment. I wonder if the shakes started because of the virus you had, and the stress carried it on - the head shaking has not happened to me in relation to migraine, but there may be someone else that has had a different experience!!

can't really tell what you mean by "shaking"vibrating i can relate to! sometimes my head feels kind of "crawly" or like my scalp is moving (i know it sounds weird) for a while if i have had a bad one. i also attribute that to my tension headaches-lots of muscle tightness-stress! i have never had it last for more than a few hours, even less. maybe go see your friendly neighborhood neuro?good luck-Sara
